THIS is the man waiting on the sidelines for Big Brother hopeful Rachel Rice as she endures her toughest time in the house yet.
As we exclusively revealed in last week's Wales on Sunday, the 24-year-old Cwmbran babe is dating Pontypool rugby centre Richard Jenkins – and not a sports car-driving millionaire as reported in a glossy magazine.
Rachel needs all the support she can get after being turned against by housemates who claim the sunny trainee teacher from Torfaen has "a dark side".
Last week, Richard will have seen Rachel embroiled in what has been billed the battle of the brunettes, when Coventry loud-mouth Rebecca Shiner objected to her and Thai cookie obsessive Kathreya Kasisopa's attempts at keeping harmony by singing their Happy Happy House song.
Single mum Jennifer Clark defended Rachel's personality but then even the Cheryl Cole lookalike, who also bears a striking resemblance to the Welsh beauty, accused her of being in "teacher mode", adding: "You're not being yourself. Rebecca just wants people to be real and so do I. I'd hate to think I was around people with game plans."
On Wednesday night muscleman Mario Marconi joined in the back-stabbing, telling Wigan student Luke Marsden Rachel's drama background meant she could turn on the smiles for the camera.
Rachel previously dated another rugby player, Torfaen Tigers centre Darryl Carter.
